Plan A (Formerly known as His Heart)

Chp 22- No

I got up the next morning and saw Lorenzo beside me looking at me. I pushed away a bit and got up.

"Love..You don't have to fear me"he said with a sad voice.

"I'm being vigilant...I want to learn how to fight and defend myself"I said looking away.

"I'll teach you"he said and I nodded before entering the bathroom.
I pulled out a gym wear from my things and looked at myself in the mirror. I took the scissors and cut some of my hair....I could feel their hands pulling my hair. I looked at my short hair that reached my neck and I sighed before walking to the kitchen. Lorenzo had laid down the food and when he saw me his eyes widened.

"What did you do?"he said and tried to touch me but I slowly pulled back.

"I cut some of my hair"I said

"Love,you shouldn't have done that"he said and I looked at him.

"You don't get to dictate for me any longer..I suffered,not you"I shouted and suddenly I felt a pair of lips over mine. I wrapped my hands over his neck as he kissed me. A kiss that could set me ablaze,make my toes curl, give me butterflies. His kiss was everything. He broke the kiss.

"I suffered too..Every night wondering where you were..scared that I'll never find you in time. I was scared that I would lose you again, Claire and this time it would be for real. I was a jerk,a coward for venting my anger on you but please don't push me away because I can't live without you. I would die if you aren't with me...Love, please... Everyone deserves another chance, don't they?"he said and my heart leapt.

"They do"I said slowly

"Then give me one last chance"he said and kissed my shoulder.

"Fine" I said slowly and he kissed my cheek.

He pulled the chair on me and put the plate on the table. He made me cookies...I smiled at him before eating them up. We later go to the gym and I stare at the punching bag.

"Punch it,love"he says and I reach out to punch when he holds my hand.

"What?"I asked slowly

"Boxing gloves"he said and put them on my hand.

"Now punch it,love"he says and I do. I pull my hand back as it is hard.

"Keep your wrist straight and extend,love"he said and I punched the bag.

"Again"he commanded and I punched over and over again. Anger passing through me as I threw the punches.

"Stop,love"he said slowly and I pulled away. I looked at him and my cheeks reddened. His tan skin stretched over hus large muscles,his shoulders wide and his muscles making a six pack outline. He looked like a god or a king. Tattoos over his chest.. beautifully created. He was ethereal in all ways and I gulped.

"Do you like what you see,love?"he said and neared me.

I took a step back and I gasped when my back hit the hard wall.

"I..."I said trying to form a sentence.

"I love you,princesa..With all my heart"he said and pulled some hair away from my face. I looked into his green eyes and my eyes landed on the tattoo on his chest. It was the name"Claire"written beautifully.

"My name...."I said slowly and he put my hand over his chest.

"I want you to be with me..Engraved on me..That is all I want,love"he said and I ran my hands over the tattoo gently.

Later on.....

I went back to my room and my face whitened. Oh no...It was time and I had no monthly supplies. I walked downstairs slowly and saw Lorenzo on his phone.

"Lorenzo"I said and he looked at me.

"You look pale..Are you okay?"he said walking up to me and touching my cheek softly.

"I...Can..."I said embarrassed

"Can what? Love,speak up now"he said and I gulped.

"I need monthly supplies"I said and he looked at me for a second.

"I'll go myself and get it for you,love...Lie down..."he said and took me back to the room and helped me to lay on the bed.

"Don't move,love.. I'll be back"he said and I nodded slowly.
